A brand new seafood bar serving up champagne and oysters has opened its doors in Doncaster city centre.

The eatery is the brainchild of Sarah Wilson and Martin Pippard, owners of popular Doncaster market fish stall The Gentleman Fishmonger, with the new outlet adjoining the stall in the market.

Launching the restaurant, they said: “After almost two years behind the scenes, we’re ready.

“The small eating area at The Gentleman Fishmonger has reopened - refined, reimagined, and with a new identity.

“An oyster and champagne bar at the heart of the market.

“A handful of seats.A glass always worth pouring. And a menu that leans into indulgent simplicity.”

The bar serves fresh oysters, shucked to order and chilled champagne as well as “retro small plates done the right way including “a proper prawn cocktail with a huge wild prawn” as well as pâtés with hot, buttered crumpets, avruga caviar, plus beers and wines.

“Expect character, conversation, and a bit of theatre.

“Seats are limited. Walk in, lean in, stay a while.We’re back.”

The bar is open Fridays and Saturdays from 10am - 3pm.
